Christmas
On Christmas Eve day we went bowling with Holly and Steve.
I think there is a similar picture somewhere of me and and my siblings looking out of this window when we were little. My dad grew up in the house he and my mom live in now.
Two angels, and we had to rope in adults as Mary and Joseph. I don't know what's up with the wiseman glasses/nose.
Trevor and Truman entranced with Geotrax. (More! Those things are so bulky.)
Emma with what Santa Claus brought. (No real kitten, again.)
Christmas was really nice. We hadn't been with my family at Christmas for five years, so the long trip was worth it. (Right, Todd?) This is a short-winded blog because I am short on time, but we hope you all had wonderful holidays as well!

Snow
This is the plowed road. At least it protects you from a collision with oncoming traffic, although having a median this high makes a left hand turn more tricky.
Family Party
The Monday before Christmas, all of my siblings but one were able to gather in snowy Idaho Falls at my sister Julie's for a great party. This was no small feat considering the weather and distance. Here I am with Janelle, Holly and Holly's son, Trevor.
Below are Steve, Julie, Mom, Todd, Rob, Michelle and Lowe.
Singing carols with the cousins.
Truman was really excited about "Jingle Bells", seeing as it's the only song he knows.
All of the grandkids, minus Jenna's four and Maia and Coco who were already asleep.

Christmas Programs
Emma's class performed "The Elves and the Shoemaker" at the holiday open house. Emma was the lead lady as Gretchen, the shoemaker's wife. She was a whiz at memorizing lots of lines and keeping cool.
Parker's class had some very cute choreography, as usual. "Oh ho, the mistletoe, hung where you can see. Somebody waits for you, kiss her once for me."
For Christmas I was surprised with a new camera, so hopefully the next program's pictures will turn out better.

Last Hurrah at Disneyland
You are seeing the last Disneyland photos for a good long while. Our season passes expired at the beginning of December. We went a lot. Enough that we are ready to give it a rest for a few years. I never knew I could get my fill. Of course, it's only been a month.
Sometimes you have to use the camera to kill some time. The boys and I are waiting for Emma and Todd to get off Soarin' Over California.
